“…Behold, if the LORD would make windows in heaven, might this thing be? And he said, Behold, thou shalt see it with thine eyes, but shalt not eat thereof” 2Kings 7:2 KJV Many times, it appears that believers have more faith in the words of human beings more than God. After surgery, your doctor looks at you and says you can go home in three days. You take his word and start telling everyone to expect you back home in three days. The person who told you is a doctor. A human being! But if God tells you that you are going home tomorrow, will you believe it? Look at the popular story in the Bible, God looked at the situation in Samaria and gave a prophetic word: “… Tomorrow, about this time shall a measure of fine flour be sold for one shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, in the gate of Samaria.” (2Kings 7:1 KJV). But a high-ranking officer, with direct access to the king, who could be likened to the king’s chief protocol officer said in today’s language: Tell it to the marines. I know enough! “Look, if the Lord would make windows in heaven, could this thing be” (2Kings 7:2 NKJV). Where is your faith! Why are we making God a liar? There is no need in your life as at today that God has not covered. Not one! I don’t care how terrible it is. The issue is can you dare to believe. Are you a believer? All things are possible to them that believe. With all the gadgets and devices around you, you must make up your mind to focus on the Word of God. Otherwise, you will be confused. And you will find yourself believing what Google tells you over and above the Word of God.
| Beloved, don’t pay attention to what the devil is saying or doing. He is bringing anxiety to you, showing you that you will not come out of that situation. The devil is a liar! God’s Word has no margin for failure. His Word shall come to pass in your life. Have faith in God! You will not die! You will live to declare the works of God. You will not be violated, and you will not be frustrated. Anyone with evil intention shall bow before you in Jesus’ name.
